Where's My... Jetpack?
In our first episode of this brand new series, Sarah Cruddas and Luke Moore search for *the* iconic Space Age invention: the jetpack.
From unwieldy early iterations to modern imitations that still remain on the periphery of technological discovery, we're yet to see a jetpack that can be strapped on and flown to work. But, in 2022, is that about to change?
To help us work out if we'll see jetpacks in our near future, we're joined by jet suit inventor and pilot Richard Browning, Dr Jonathan Clark and the great Bill Suitor, pilot of the iconic jetpack at the 1984 Olympics in Los Angeles.
Which inventions should we look into next? Find us on Twitter @SarahCruddas @lukeaaronmoore @StakPod
